Title: I don’t need another gun but...
Post by: fatmatic on January 06, 2021, 05:40:57 PM
I couldn’t help myself when I saw a .22 FX cyclone on the preowned section of AoA for $600. I tried looking up more info but doesn’t seem like a whole lot. What I really like is the external power adjuster. I’m not much of a tinkerer so having that easily adjustable is a plus for me, kind of like a do all rifle (won’t stop me from buying more)

Any experiences w this rifle? Backyard friendly? Did I overpay?

Looks similar to an FX T12 .22 I had....it was dead nuts accurate! Shot JSB 16gr right @ 900fps. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it 👍. I saw that one on AoA’s site..nice wood.

Kevin, congratulations! I was out shooting mine this afternoon! Ha! Enjoy that lil fun carbine! FYI..they need barrel cleaning every 150 shots or so (poi will change around there) in the beginning till the barrel seasons or polish the barrel 👍.

I am waiting for the parts to convert an SPA CP1 to PP800 carbine in .177. Should be a fun little plinker.

thanks for the FYI Randall, did what you said and it's seasoning up nicely, getting very accurate, got dime size groups at 25 yards with CPHP's, btw, I Flex Sealed the butt stock and it turned out really nice, very grippy and feels good, it also covered the sharp corners and made it more comfortable, I almost got a Gopher yesterday but I waited too long to get a shot and it back filled it's hole, Oh well, next Sunday's another chance. ;)

I was going to order from Wes up in Canada since I want it to be lower powered to practice my 5-10m shooting and If I want to increase the power and pest I could. Did you buy yours from Krale?

Man, that HM  1000 is on a whole other level!


First stimulus check,GRRRR! Microwave went down. Tv, A/C in the shop, counter top oven, Battery in the car, HP Compressor, and a few others I can't remember at the moment. Man, and daddy needs a new airgun. Now the check is too small to do any good. LOL!
